As the result of a number of in- terviews with vat and box men, the conclusion is reached, by "Packages," that it is not possible to formulate any fixed rule for boil- ing or steaming logs for veneer work or bolts for staves. It seems to be entirely a matter of practice and observation. Two logs of about 1 lie same size and sometimes from the same tree will each require a different length of time to get them in a proper condition for the veneer lathe. A butt cut will take longer to bod than a cut from the upper part of the tree. The want of any means of testing the condition of the log other than that afforded by putting it in the machine is one of the reasons for the absence of any certain or reliable rule for guidance in this sort of work. The changing from live to exhaust steam will often upset the calcula- tion of even old and experienced men. It is alsj> noticed that a loo that is "off" in the boiling will in° crease the defects in the timber " hen under the knife by reason of its not cutting clean and materi- ally increases the difficulty of working. If there were some means of trying a log, like sticking a fork in a potato, it would help the mat- ter considerably, and in that case some cheap boy would take the
